Abstract
Description
- 1. Technical Field
- The present disclosure relates to a light emitting diode (LED) unit and, more particularly, to an LED unit having a lens which can produce an effectively converged light beam.
- 2. Description of Related Art
- LEDs, available since the early 1960's and because of their high light-emitting efficiency, have been increasingly used in a variety of occasions, such as residential, traffic, commercial, and industrial occasions. Conventionally, light directly output from the LED does not have a desirable pattern; therefore, a light-adjusting element, such as a lens, is used with the LED to modulate the light pattern thereof.
- However, a typical lens generally has a limited light-converging capability; that is, the light passing through the lens cannot be effectively converged to have a small light-emergent angle. Thus, the light pattern output from the lens may have a yellow annulus or shining annulus appearing at a periphery thereof, adversely affecting illumination effect of the lens.
- What is needed, therefore, is an LED unit which can overcome the limitations described above.
- Many aspects of the present disclosure can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the present disclosure. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
-
FIG. 1 is an isometric view of a lens of an LED unit of the disclosure. -
FIG. 2 is an inverted view of the lens ofFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 3 shows a cross-section of the LED unit with the lens ofFIG. 1 . - Referring to
FIGS. 1 and 3 , an LED unit of the present disclosure is illustrated. The LED unit includes anLED module 10 and alens 30 mounted on theLED module 10. TheLED module 10 includes a printedcircuit board 12 and anLED 20 mounted on the printedcircuit board 12. The printedcircuit board 12 may be a MCPCB (Metal Core Printed Circuit Board), a CPCB (Ceramic Printed Circuit Board) or other type PCBs which have good heat dissipation capability. TheLED 20 includes a heat-conductingbase 22, anLED die 24 mounted on a top of thebase 22, and an encapsulant 26 covering theLED die 24 and fixed on the top of thebase 22. Thebase 22 of theLED 20 is soldered on the printedcircuit board 12 to conduct heat generated by theLED die 24 to the printedcircuit board 12. In addition, theLED die 24 is electrically connected with the printedcircuit board 12 via thebase 22. TheLED die 24 may be an InGaN chip, an InGaAs chip, a GaP chip or other suitable chips which could generate visible light with a desirable color. Theencapsulant 26 is made by epoxy, silicon, glass or other transparent materials which have good light-permeable and water-proof capabilities. Phosphor may be doped within theencapsulant 26 to adjust the color of the light emitted from theLED die 24. Theencapsulant 26 is shaped like a dome so as to collimate the light from the LED die 24 into a converged beam. TheLED 20 has an optical axis I, around which the light emitted from theencapsulant 26 is symmetrical in a surrounding space. - Also referring to
FIG. 2 , thelens 30 is made from transparent materials such as PC (polycarbonate) or PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate). Thelens 30 includes asubstrate 32, anoptical member 34 extending upwardly from thesubstrate 32 and aflange 36 extending outwardly from a circumference of theoptical member 34. Thesubstrate 32 has a circular configuration with arectangular window 320 defined in a bottom face thereof. Thewindow 320 has an area similar to that of thebase 22 of theLED 20 for receiving thebase 22 of theLED 20 therein. Acavity 340 is defined in the interior of thelens 30. Thecavity 340 is located above a center of and communicates with thewindow 320 to further receive theencapsulant 26 of theLED 20 therein. Thecavity 340 has a shape of a truncated cone. A diameter of thecavity 340 gradually decreases from a bottom towards a top of thelens 30. An inner face of thelens 30 facing theencapsulant 26 of theLED 20 functions as a first light-incident face 301 of thelens 30 to receive the light emitted from theLED 20 with a small light-emergent angle (such the light b shown inFIG. 3 ). Another inner surface of thelens 30 surrounding theencapsulant 26 of theLED 20 functions as a second light-incident face 302 of thelens 30 to receive the light emitted from theLED 20 with a large light-emergent angle (such as the light a shown inFIG. 3 ). The first light-incident face 301 is planar, and the second light-incident face 302 is curved and slightly protruding inwardly towards theLED 20. The second light-incident face 302 has a curvature gradually decreasing from the bottom towards the top of thelens 30, ranging between 0.05 mm−1 and 0.08 mm−1. The first light-incident face 301 and the second light-incident face 302 cooperatively form a light-incident face 300 to refract all of the light of theLED 20 into thelens 30. - The
optical member 34 has an upwardly-expanding bowl shape. An outer circumference of theoptical member 34 functions as a light-reflectingface 303 of thelens 30 to totally reflect the light transferred from the second light-incident face 302 towards the top of thelens 30. Alternatively, the light-reflectingface 303 can be further coated with a reflective layer (such as aluminum layer or silver layer) for promoting light reflection. Theflange 36 is located on the light-reflectingface 303 and adjacent to a top of theoptical member 34. Theflange 36 is for being pressed by a clip against the printedcircuit board 12 to thereby secure thelens 30 on the printedcircuit board 12. The light-reflectingface 303 is divided by theflange 36 into a first light-reflectingface 304 and a second light-reflectingface 305. The first light-reflectingface 304 is conical and gradually expands from the bottom towards the top of thelens 30. The first light-reflectingface 304 has a curvature firstly increasing and then decreasing from the bottom towards the top of thelens 30, ranging between 0.02 mm−1 and 0.06 mm−1. The second light-reflectingface 305 is vertical and has a zero curvature. - A top face of the
optical member 34 is concaved downwardly to form a conical second light-emergent face 308. The second light-emergent face 308 directly connects with the second light-reflectingface 305. A protrusion (not labeled) is protruded upwardly from a central area of the top face of theoptical member 34. The protrusion has a flat top face and a curved circumferential face continuous from the flat top face. The flat top face and the curved circumferential face of the protrusion cooperatively form a first light-emergent face 307 of thelens 30. The first light-emergent face 307 mostly takes charge for the light transmitted from the first light-incident face 301, the second light-emergent face 308 mostly takes charge for the light totally reflected by the light-reflectingface 303, to thereby refract nearly all of the light from theLED 20 out of thelens 30 within a small light-emergent angle. The first light-emergent face 307 has a curvature ranging between 0 and 0.9 mm−1, and the second light-emergent face 308 has a curvature ranging between 0 and 0.12 mm−1. The first-emergent face 307 and the second light-emergent face 308 cooperatively form a light-emergent face 306 to refract the light within thelens 30 towards a place above thelens 30. - Being adjusted by the first light-incident face 301, the second light-
incident face 302, the first light-reflectingface 304, the second light-reflectingface 305, the first light-emergent face 307 and the second light-emergent face 308, the light emitted from theLED 20 could be effectively converged within a small angle, thereby preventing a periphery of a light pattern output by theLED 20 via thelens 30 from being yellow or shining. - It is believed that the present disclosure and its advantages will be understood from the foregoing description, and it will be apparent that various changes may be made thereto without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure or sacrificing all of its material advantages, the examples hereinbefore described merely being preferred or exemplary embodiments.
